Just bought a Draytek 2860n router, but can't make it connect, nor can Plusnet support help as apparently they don't support "third party routers". Switched from copper to fibre a few months ago, and hadn't realised my old Draytek router would need a fibre mux 😞 So bought the 2860n instead. The line works with the PlusOne hub, so am excluding the line, so think it's either settings or I bought a defective router. Now I have a static IP, but don't see that making much difference, and have tried leaving the ISP field both blank and set to plusdsl. I've typed in my username and password twice to rule out typos. Even read the Draytek booklet. Not quite sure the booklet is right as it suggests the WAN2 light gives internet status, wheras WAN1 is the VDSL port, and WAN2 being the gigabyte port. The 2860 is reporting eventually that the plusnet end is not responding. WLAN is green, but DSL light is off. Any ideas?
Fixed! Go to the fix.

Are you entering the username in the format 'username'@plusdsl.net?

Bingo!!!! , took me a while to find what set to or where to find it,, and it was set to none. Not sure of the proper way of setting it but used the quick start wizard, to set it to 101. Left priority at 0. Oddly it took out my password, but status at least told me password or user name error, so told me progress being made So Draytek factory setting doesn't work. Thank you for your help. I'm now connected via my Draytek 🙂
